Are you driving the car or am I?

I understood what you’re asking, and thank you for asking. I’m slowly walking you through it.

In the beginning God - not the Son of God - created the heavens and the earth @Truly. “God said … “ - that’s not Jesus. That’s not the Messiah. God didn’t speak by his Son, the Messiah, until “these last days”.

God is the Father, Yahweh. He did not speak by his Son (Jesus) in the Hebrew Bible. ”These last days” began in the New Testament. Some people might say “these last days” began with the conception of Jesus in the womb of the virgin. Some might say that “these last days” began when Jesus embarked...

I understand all of them through the lens of Jewish monotheism. Let’s look at the last verse which you quoted, Hebrews 1:1. Did God speak by his Son in the Hebrew Bible / Old Testament? We can answer that question by identifying when “these last days” began.

Obtained from a search of my posts for “dual number” - Post in thread '˒ĕlōhı̂m: Plural Persons, or Majesty?' ˒ĕlōhı̂m: Plural Persons, or Majesty? This is elementary Hebrew language textbook information. True, not false.

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” True. (Genesis 1:1) https://biblehub.com/text/genesis/1-1.htm The Hebrew word is elohim. Hebrew elohim -> English God. Singular. ”In the beginning gods created the heavens and the earth.” False. Hebrew elohim -> English gods...

He doesn’t understand how the Hebrew word functions. Do you? Everything that I’ve written about the Hebrew word elohim is true and easily verified.

Moses is a Jewish monotheist. He plainly believed and taught that elohim as it pertains to the God (Heb. elohim) of Israel is singular. Here is what elohim looks like when rendered in English: Elohim, always plural in form, singular in meaning -> God, or god. Elohim, always plural in form...

Please help me out here. Render the Hebrew word elohim in English for us. What does the word look like in English when it is plural? What does it look like in English when it is singular? “Us“ and “our“ are plural words. I’m not asking about those words. I’m asking about the Hebrew word...

The apostles saw him, touched him, spoke with him, ate with him, and were taught by him for a period of forty days after he was bodily resurrected from the grave. Good. You’re not reading about a “mere man” but rather a supernaturally begotten Jewish man. Jesus is a unique man, a one of a kind...

He’s the same person in heaven that he was on the earth. Yes. He hasn’t changed what he believes. A former Baptist preacher was well-known for saying “There’s a Jew sitting at the right hand of God in heaven!” When you read Jesus, do you hear him talking to and about his God? You should...
